Lively Restaurants in Vancouver

Food and fun go hand in hand and these restaurants will make sure your dining experience is both delicious and entertaining. Fun restaurants in Vancouver aren't hard to find, so sit back, relax and let your senses be entertained!

Rodney's Oyster House is our number one for many reasons and the first is the atmosphere of the place. If you've ever dreamed of going to the East Coast, this may very well be your ticket. The white wooden walls, nautical decorations and fresh seafood are the perfect ingredients to evoke the coast. The servers are all male and can be quite cheeky at the best of times, so take what they say with a pinch of salt and have a laugh.

The Afghan Horseman gets a mention because not only do they have a belly dancer perform, but you can also opt to eat on cushions and share big platters of delicious food with friends. Sanafir does something similar and if you have a large group or party, you can rent big bed-like areas to sit around and eat in.

Fondue has to be one of the most fun things to eat and Au Petit Chavignol has you covered for this cheesy feast!

The Helm is made up of a seasonal an local (where possible) menu and after diners have enjoyed a delicious meal, they have a DJ step in and play some tunes to groove to. It's your one-stop shop!
